To that end, I will present an overview of blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, and smart contracts at the law offices of Tilleke & Gibbins (Bangkok, Thailand) on January 31, 2018 and at the Annual Meeting of Licensing Executives Society (LES)-Thailand on February 1, 2018. This presentation is intended to introduce attorneys of all practice areas to the essential information every lawyer should know about this emerging, global technology.
